Discover God's original intent for our food and its healing power for our bodies. From the very beginning, God had a plan for the flourishing of our whole self.
When was the last time you or someone you love prayed for healing? In a world with skyrocketing rates of chronic disease, autoimmune conditions, and mental health disorders, it was likely not long ago. If you haven't experienced the healing you prayed for, it's easy to feel discouraged and alone. But what if God has already answered that prayer? What if His answer is far better than you could've imagined? What if God has already given us everything we need to flourish physically, mentally, and spiritually? What if you are actually designed to heal? In Designed to Heal, author Alex Morgan describes his wife's battle against Ulcerative Colitis, where she found victory, and how that affected their faith. Alex breaks down how God designed our bodies to heal themselves and our food to fuel that healing. He continues by diving into the personal and societal patterns of life that have led us deeper into disease. Finally, he gives practical insights into living out God's original healing design for our bodies. Our physical and spiritual selves are more interconnected than we think. In Designed to Heal, Alex shares his family's personal experience discovering that truth. If you're in need of healing or simply want to help your body flourish, this book will provide the insight you need to begin or continue that journey. In the process, your faith will be encouraged as you realize that God didn't leave you or ignore you but, on the contrary, He designed you to heal. In this book you'll learn:- Personal stories of healing from autoimmune disease, Ulcerative Colitis, Chron's Disease, and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
